Leicestershire-based SPARK THINKING, an Ashfield Meetings & Events brand, has been re-appointed by the Milken Institute to manage its London Summit on 5 December at the Park Plaza Westminster.
The Milken Institute London Summit will convene 900 European leaders in business, government, diplomacy, technology, media and philanthropy to discuss and confront the grand challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in a post-Brexit Europe.
SPARK THINKING will provide a full service offering including event production, creative solutions, environmental branding and logistical and on-site support for the invitation-only event
Jayne Van Hoen, executive director, events at the Milken Institute, commented: “Working in partnership with SPARK THINKING we have used the successful platform from 2016 and developed and enhanced it for 2017… We are looking forward to another successful London Summit and strengthening the Milken Institute’s growing position in the European market.”
Luke Flett, global client relationship director at SPARK THINKING, said: “We are delighted with our continuing partnership with the Milken Institute and to be delivering their prestigious London Summit again. The discussions that take place at the summit are carefully designed to spark thinking in new directions so we see it as a perfect brand alignment. We pride ourselves on keeping abreast of the external trends that might impact our clients’ business and this allows us to add real value to the event communications activity we deliver not only for the institute but for all of our clients.”
Flett added “In 2017 we have also supported event activity for the institute in Asia and are delighted to announce that in addition to the London Summit we have been appointed to deliver the inaugural Milken Institute MENA Summit (Middle East and North Africa) that will take place in Abu Dhabi in February 2018.”
The Milken Institute is a non-profit economic think tank based in California.
